News – Remedy confirms that next Alan Wake is not Alan Wake 2

Speaking to Eurogamer, Remedy Entertainment’s head of franchise development Oskari Hakkinen had the following to say when questioned:

“Fans of the franchise will be excited to learn that yes, more Wake is coming! But to be absolutely certain to avoid confusion, this next Wake instalment will not be Alan Wake 2. And neither will it be DLC,”

“It’s something that’ll definitely give more to the Wake fans out there, but just as importantly, this instalment will also give an opportunity for players who aren’t familiar with the franchise to finally jump on board,”

“We can’t wait to show you more, bear with us. Release dates, platforms and pricing are unconfirmed as of yet, but Fall 2011 is probably a good guess.”

Well, it’s E3 next month. Perhaps Remedy will be more forthcoming by then.

If you haven’t played the original Alan Wake on the Xbox 360 as of yet, then I would really suggest you to do so, you may even enjoy it as much as I did.
